I have to call 3 or 4 times to get a prescription refilled. I should only have to make one phone call to the pharmacist. I feel like I have to beg to get my prescriptions refilled.

The doctor was attentive and made eye contact. She listened and answered my questions. I felt she didn't assert a concern for my health. No exam, no questions. The visit felt inadequate. She didn't seem like an advocate for my health.

I have been seeing Dr. Bergquam for some time now...it has taken both of us time to 'warm' to each other. I feel very comfortable with her, I feel she hears me, respects me, and treats my care as if it is the most important thing in her practice. Thank you Dr. Bergquam for hanging in there with me.

She is always very pleasant, knowledgeable, carefully listens to me and "nails" the diagnosis immediately! If the problem is beyond her expertise, she will refer me to a specialist if necessary. I have every confidence in her!

i usually spend more time with the PA. If I had realized this visit with the doctor was just a follow-up for tests she had ordered, I probably would not have gone to the appointment, because everything I was told was info I already had gotten from the MyChart account online.

Dr. Bergquam always makes me feel like she has all the time in the world for me, which I definitely appreciate. She is knowledgeable and I could definitely tell that she had taken the time to go over my medical records prior to the appointment.

I always receive excellent care that is one of the reasons my husband and I come there

I did not always hear back from the medical assistants when they said they would get back to me. In addition, I didn't find out that the doctor had ordered a follow up test until four days after she ordered the test, even though I had spoken with an assistant on the day the test was ordered.

I have been seeing Dr. B. for seven years. She knows my medical history and sensitivities. My wife also sees her, so she knows us both. I can, and have, told her very private information, which she reacts to with compassion and sensitivity. She has made me comfortable and confident in our discussions. She has my trust and I appreciate our relationship as doctor/patient. I would hate to lose her after developing this trust. She is a great listener....I am proud and confident to call her My doctor.

[...] Dr Bergquam not only listened, but treated me & gave me access to a physical therapist, both of which combined gave me 70% relief in only a few days from the [...] pain in my shoulders and hips at night. This had prevented me from a good nights sleep over the last several years. I have continued to improve. I coul;d not be happier!
